This is the API server for Statik. It's designed to be the public-facing stats querying server, plus a form of API documentation.

This server is live at api.statik.io.

To use this, you'll need the following.

• Python 3.4 or later
• The following Python libraries
  • bottle
  • mako
  • pymongo
  • pyyaml
• To run the development server, you'll need one of the supported Bottle backends. We suggest CherryPy.

• Install Python 3.4 or later if you haven't already
• Install the required libraries - You can do this quickly using pip install -r requirements.txt
• Enter the config/ folder
  • Copy config.yml.example to config.yml and fill it out.
  • Copy database.yml.example to database.yml and fill it out.
  • You can also do development.yml.example if you need to change the defaults for local testing.
• Launch the server
  • For testing, you can simply run python run.py or python3 run.py.
  • For production, you should really use uWSGI.
